CHLORINE DIOXIDE ≤ .05% AQUEOUS SOLUTION

Symptoms of Exposure
Signs and symptoms of exposure to this material through swallowing include: stomach or
intestinal upset (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea).

Target Organ Effects

Chlorine dioxide gas is a mucous membrane and respiratory tract irritant.

Developmental Information
Based on the available information, risk to the fetus from material exposure to this maternal
exposure to this material cannot be assessed.

Cancer Information
Based on the available information, this material cannot be classified with regard to
carcinogenicity. This material is not listed as a carcinogen by the International Agency for
Research on cancer, the National Toxicology Program, or the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration.

Other Health Effects

No data.

Primary Route(s) of Entry

Inhalation, ingestion.

4. FIRST AID MEASURES

Eyes
If symptoms develop, move individual away from exposure and into fresh air. Flush eyes
gently with water while holding eyelids apart. If symptoms persist or there is any visual
difficulty, seek medical attention.

Skin
First aid is not normally required. However, it is recommended that exposed areas be
cleaned by washing with soap and water.

Swallowing
First aid is not normally required. If symptoms develop, seek medical attention.

Inhalation
If symptoms develop, immediately move individual away from exposure and into fresh air.
Seek immediate medical attention; keep person warm and quiet. If person is not breathing,
begin artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen.

Notes to Physicians

5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Flash Point
Not applicable

Explosive Limit
Chlorine dioxide gas is explosive at concentration of 10% in air or greater.

Autoignition Temperature
No data

Hazardous Products of Combustion

May from: chlorine, hydrochloric acid gas, oxygen.

Fire and Explosion Hazards

No special fire hazards are known to be associated with the product.

Extinguishing Media
Water fog.

Fire Fighting Instructions

Wear a self-contained breathing apparatus with a full face piece operated in the positive
pressure demand mode with appropriate turn-out gear and chemical resistant personal
protective equipment. Refer to the personal protective equipment section of this MSDS.

NFPA Rating
Health – 1, Flammability – 0, Reactivity – 1

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Small Spill
Absorb liquid on vermiculite, floor absorbent or other absorbent material. Flush area with
water.

Large Spill
Prevent run-off to sewers, streams or other bodies of water. If run-off occurs, notify proper
authorities as required, that a spill has occurred. Persons not wearing protective equipment
should be excluded from area of spill until clean-up has been completed. Stop spill at source,
dike area of spill to prevent spreading, pump liquid to salvage tank. Remaining liquid may
be taken up on sand, clay, earth, floor absorbent, or other absorbent material and shoveled
into containers. Flush area with water.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Handling agitation of product should be minimized to prevent the evolution of chlorine

dioxide gas into the breathing zones of workers.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION

Eye Protection
Wear safety glasses in compliance with OSHA regulations. (Consult your safety
representative).

Skin Protection
Wear resistant gloves such as: neoprene to prevent skin contact, wear impervious clothing
and boots. Other protective equipment: eyewash station, emergency shower.

Respiratory Protection
Exposures in the workplace should be monitored to determine if worker exposure exceeds
the facility specified exposure “action level” or the use of the product produces adverse
health effects or symptoms of exposure. Only a NIOSH-approved respirator is to be used.
Monitoring results must be used to assess the proper level or respiratory protection
necessary. Proper engineering and/or administrative controls should be used to reduce
worker exposure. The facility’s respiratory protection program must meet the requirements
established in 29 CFR 1910.134, which includes a program for medical evaluation.

Engineering Controls
Provide sufficient mechanical (general and/or local exhaust) ventilation to maintain
exposure below level of overexposure.
